The Man and the<br />

Wooden God<br />

In the old days men used to worship stocks and stones and<br />

idols, and prayed to them to give them luck. It happened<br />

that a Man had often prayed to a wooden idol he had received<br />

from his father, but his luck never seemed to change.<br />

He prayed and he prayed, but still he remained as unlucky<br />

The idol broke in two, and what did he see? An immense<br />

number of coins flying all over the place.<br />
